Fitting the strong coupling constant with soft-drop thrust

Abstract Soft drop has been shown to reduce hadronisation effects at e + e − colliders for the thrust event shape. In this context, we perform fits of the strong coupling constant for the soft-drop thrust distribution at NLO+NLL accuracy to pseudo data generated by the Sherpa event generator. In par...
